Mosaic Gallery

Will de Vries

My name is Will de Vries. I live in the Netherlands, close to the border of Belgium. When I was eight years old, I made my first mosaic. I began to work seriously in 1989.
Since then I worked every day on it for several hours.
I have had 12 exibitions and just finished one last week.
I think it is very nice to show my work to people who are interested. Totaly I have made 33 mosaics, and have now found my own style.
It is important that people that like to start making mosaics know that it is not nessesery to follow lessons or to read a lot about mosaics. I like to say to them "Just begin".

To make a mosaic of one colour is very difficult, and you need a lot of difference in nuance.
